#Asding carbon to a railroad spike knife full#
Check out this video to see the full review!… Everything from Titanium Nunchaku to a Training Rapier, we really wanted to test these to make sure they're awesome. Titanium Nunchaku and Other Deadly Weaponsįor this week on Weapons Wednesday, we tested out some of our newest that we just got into our warehouse. Be sure to watch the video to see all of these awesome weapons!… We reviewed everything from a wakizashi, folding karambit, neck knife, and obviously a morning star. Make sure to tune in to watch our newest Weapons Wednesday video, the Modern Combat Morning Star and Other Lethal Weapons. KT researched this and found the HC stands for high carbon and L is the manufacturer, Lewis Bolt Company out of Colorado.Modern Combat Morning Star and Other Lethal Weapons Nice to have a couple of early examples of his work tho.įinally, the head of my rr spike knive has the following markings.L HC. For those who don't know, Arkansas has more bladesmiths than all the other states combined! One of those old skills that continues to be valued!

Got his training at the Old Washington blade school. I looked him up on and found he is now a member of the Arkansas Knife Making Guild and boy have his prices gone up.Of course, his quality has too! starting at $175 each! He does a lot of damascus blade knives now. Only one problem with it.it is too heavy to get a scabbard made and carry it on my belt in the field.KT would naturally walk slightly to the right if it was worn on the right hip! Thanks, Ozarks! I like it cause it only cost me 12 bucks! KT enjoyed the s obvious the blade work and finishing of those knifes are a bit better than KTs, but could be a bit improved by filing the thumb placement grooves above the hilt blade join as on KTs.just another added grip help! KT likes the 90 degree twist on his handle rather than the multiple twist but was interesting to see that done! Thanks for posting the video, Ozarks! Apparently the twist was done on KT's knife early in the forging proces, before the blade was hammered out! Maybe you could find a local fellow interested in making knifes and give him a load of spikes in exchange for him making you one! KT likes the twist of the handle on this one, makes a good grip or it could be leather wrapped to be less hard perhaps.įinally, with such a knife you need to keep a very light coat of oil on the blade to prevent rust. Here are a couple of pics of KT's rr spike knife, bought from a local was a learning knife for him to make, but since it fit my hand perfectly, had a nice balanced feel, and a big pommel end on it suitable for either breaking a car window glass in an emergency, or crackin some bad guys head in a moment of survival, KT bought it.it only cost $12 but that was about 20 years ago.the poor maker, Solomon, was selling nuttin at a craft show KT was exhibiting at so KT purchased one nice deer antler handle folder for $35, its a short bladed skinner and this one, just to give him some gas money.remember 20 years ago.to get home! Knives are nice items to have made from railroad spikes, if you got a local knife maker.they got good quality high carbon steel and work up well.
